Department of Medical Laboratory Sciences and Pathology, Faculty of Health Sciences and Institute of Health, Jimma University, Jimma, Ethiopia.
Background: Clinical laboratory reference intervals are an important tool to identify abnormal laboratory test results. The generating of hematological parameters reference intervals for local population is very crucial to improve quality of health care, which otherwise may lead to unnecessary expenditure or denying care for the needy. There are no well-established reference intervals for hematological parameters in southwest Ethiopia.
